      Verdict

      HEATHYARDS PRIDE gets the vote in this claimer and he is nominated to get the better of Quince and Bridgewater Boys. Reg Hollinshead's string continue in sparkling form and our selection has a really good record over this course and distance. He arrives here right on top of his game and from a good draw Graham Gibbons can steer him to victory. Quince has the plum draw and he has been given a short break since his last run on Boxing Day. He was a little disappointing on that occasion but he is a capable performer and he should run his race. Bridgewater Boys was recently claimed by David Evans and he ran well enough last time out when chasing home La Estrella. He is another with a good draw and course and distance winning form so he should be capable of getting competitive. Calzaghe is returning from a short break but he was a bit disappointing when last seen out at Kempton. A fascinating race and the vote is given to Heathyards Pride.
